Violence has been a staple of films for quite some time.It helps make the action scenes engaging.However, there are concerns that present day films contain too much violence. It leads to certain issues that are yet to be resolved.Let’s look at them in closer detail.
Presently, film is the most consumed media among the general public.People irrespective of caste,creed or gender enjoy it.So , it’s safe to say that films have a huge influence on our lives.Certain films help motivate people to achieve their life’s desire.While other films help those suffering from depression.However,there are some negative impacts. Films try to justify violence. Heroes commit monstrous acts and justify it away by using the old adage “The ends justify the means”. This is absolutely the wrong message for the viewers.Sure,most people would consider violent scenes as nothing more than a part of the film.Still , a certain section of moviegoers are considerably influenced by it .Overtime they develop rash and uncultured tendencies. This leads to incidents of theft, personal attacks among others.Eventually,societies will turn into a chaotic mess.
Another concern is depression.Some films are filled to the brim with torture and destruction and they can affect the minds of the viewers. This mostly applies to younger audiences.Scenes of annihilation and death can fill the viewer with a sense of doom which latter spirals into mental disorders.
So, what can be done?
The most important measure is censorship. Parts of the film, deemed too inappropriate can be removed.Also special care should be taken to ensure that kids aren’t able to access films that are filled to the brim with brutal and merciless scenes. Even adults that suffer from mental disorders should also be limited access to such kind of films so as to not over complicate their medical condition.Film makers should be encourages or even mandated by law to find other means to make action sequences exciting.

The high level of violence in the current generation movies tends to erupt the social peace. This is always one of the important debate that resumes when there is a some kind of violence in the society, especially when there are teens linked to the issue.
Concerns related to violence created by teens is on a higher frequency and the pictures and short films is to be blamed to provoke the tendencies for such brutal acts. Let it be from creating chaos on a public transport to joining huge networks of cyber bullying. The animal like behaviour usually does’nt pass on to the next generation through the gene, it is always inspired or obtained from an external source. This is where the so called moving pictures plays an crucial role in shaping the mentality of the human nature and as always its easy to manipulate the mind of a youngster when compared to that of a matured adult.
News involving young induviduals in crimes are almost like an everyday thing in the current society. All the crimes are executed in a cliched cinematic style, where boys throw acid bottles on the opposite gender, group assaults on weaker sections of people, High level thefts, clueless murders etc. These animal like activites require inpiration and one can find all the tricks and techniques from the cinemas of the currents era.
The only possible way I can state is to categorise the movies according to the level of exposure to violence and telecast the same to the group of people accordingly. Ofcourse there is censor boards for reginol and international movies, but the problem here is that these A-Rated contents are’nt just viewed by adults. I personally have witnessed theatres flocked with huge number of young crowd for the 18+ content. The practical solution to encounter these contents from misleading the young mind is only by forcing age restrictions and these rules and regulations must be reviewed and verified on regular basis.

The only possible way I can state is to categorise the movies according to the level of exposure to violence and telecast the same to the group of people accordingly. Despite the presence of censor boards for regional and international movies, we are failing to prohibit the children from viewing these A-Rated contents along with the adults.
